PHILADELPHIA (AP)-- The reviews are out, and the analysts are giving Hillary Clinton a win, but Major League Baseball Commissioner Bud Selig officially declared the debate with Illinois Senator Barack Obama and the New York senator a tie:
"I want to take this opportunity to apologize to the citizens of the United States," commissioner Selig said. "This is a very regrettable situation. The decision was made because there were no questions left, no moderators left. This is not the ending I had hoped for. I was in a no-win situation."
Before Selig's unpopular ruling, both candidates sparred back and forth about the recent gaffes that have followed their campaigns. After things simmered down, Obama and Clinton noted the stuffy, rising temperatures in the Constitution Center illustrated the threat of global warming.
"It's very warm in here," Senator Obama noted.
"If we can simply agree to disagree with Mother Nature, we'll be the better for it."
The statement led to the revelation from Hillary that she served as her neighbohood's weatherperson as a young teen,
"I take exception to Senator Obama's notion that we 'disagree' with Mother Nature. Mother is very kind and nurturing, and has her reasons for doing the things she does. I can remember, as a young girl, going outside and observing Mother's rain gauge and jet-stream," she said.
"It's the main reason I got into meteorology and created the first 3 day forecast in our small town."

It was the Democratic candidates’ final face-to-face meeting ahead of Tuesday’s presidential primary in Pennsylvania, and Clinton needed to hit hard against Obama, who has been under fire for his ties to Rev. Jeremiah Wright, ties to Weather Underground Leader William Ayers, remarks he made saying Americans cling to guns and religion to express frustration, and the fact that he bowled a 37 just a few weeks ago.
"I have out-bowled Rev. Wright, just as I have denounced his anti-American sentiments," Obama said.
In the end, fans in attendance at the National Constitution Center booed the moderators - including Commissioner Selig - and labeled the debate the 'worst ever'.
